    I always liked Malignaggi as a commentator.
    He would be a great guy to give a go to.

    That at times it seemed he was speaking more like a hood talking jive then a professional commentator of a top boxing match.

    Is it really him being wasted, or is he just getting old? I'm feeling pretty confident the man is just aging and not as sharp as he once was.

    I don't know if it will be in the realm of commentary, but Paulie will stay in the sport once his days of fighting are done...Good clip though..:thumbsup

    I don't know man. They show him interviewing Manny a few hours before the fight and he looks sober as my granddad and has a normal conversation. Then they go live in hamburg around 10pm and he looks trashed.

    LOL I dunno. Either way I guess he is mellow. Hell, it seems to have been working for him for years, why stop now. He is slurring more and more, though it seems.

    It was awesome to see Foreman sitting next to Vitali reading the newspaper to get Wladimir.... felt bad for Lewis having to stand there like a tool waiting on Haye for half an hour.

    RJJ is getting even harder to understand.

    Whenever I watch a Klitschko fight, rest assured that one of the announcers is going to have some intrinsic problem with them.

    It is really getting predictable and old...
